    Dont judge a book by its cover. Ambience of dive bar. Shockingly great food. I had fried chicken sandwich which was really good. Better than most "top 10" chicken sandwiches I've had from around town. Buddy had a burger that looked good and he said was great. Only complaint was we could of used more fries. I gave my friend the option to go somewhere else more upscale looking when we got there, but we both decided to try anyways based on reviews. We will go again for sure. We also went at 3.00p on a Friday so it was rather quiet and slow which was great to chat.

    The food was excellent. I had the salmon tacos, one of the chef's specials. I also had one of the specialty drinks for the month. Our server was very nice and came frequently to our table to ask if we needed anything. We were the last table to leave and they didn't rush us.
